Configure the key via `API_SERVER_KEY` env var. If you need a browser to call Hermes directly, also set `API_SERVER_CORS_ORIGINS` to an explicit allowlist.
:::warning Security
The API server gives full access to hermes-agent's toolset, **including terminal commands**. When binding to a non-loopback address like `0.0.0.0`, `API_SERVER_KEY` is **required**. Also keep `API_SERVER_CORS_ORIGINS` narrow to control browser access.
The default bind address (`127.0.0.1`) is for local-only use. Browser access is disabled by default; enable it only for explicit trusted origins.

Keep `API_SERVER_CORS_ORIGINS` narrow to control browser access when you explicitly allow browser callers.
